Melissa Etheridge
A Little Hard Hearted
We were playing house
Just playing make believe
That you and I in love
Is all we really need
How could I have known
That every feeling swallowed inside
Would just keep glowing
Never knowing that it would someday blow in
Then it was over just like it started
A little more lonely
And a little hard hearted
The looking glass shattered
Everyone departed
A little more lonely
And a little hard hearted
Oooooo
Broken dreams and shattered glass
Late night screams and busted handles
We tried to hide the past
Settled for the lies
And the dirty scandals
How could I have known
The promises would fade now
Turned to stone and fall away
Just fall away
Then it was over
Just like it started
A little more lonely
And a little hard hearted
Yeah
The looking glass shattered
Everyone departed
A little more lonely
And a little hard hearted
Oooohh
I don't want to be hard hearted
Nooooo
I dont want to be hard hearted
And it was over
Just like it started
A little more lonely
And a little hard hearted
The looking glass shattered
Everyone departed
A little more lonely
A little hard hearted
